About
Tender is the North presents a programme that offers a glimpse into the rich treasure trove of Scandinavian organ music. This fascinating selection of works from Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway and Sweden contains two premiere recordings - Nystedt’s Med Jesus vil eg fara and Másson’s Larghetto, written specifically for this programme and hitherto under-recorded such as Sibelius’s Intrada, Op.111a and Palmgren’s Preludes.
This recording from Coventry Cathedral should prove a fascinating and rewarding collection.

This impressive recital sheds new light on the treasures of Scandinavia. Quinn's playing is never less than enthralling and the organ - with Chandos's perfectly balanced engineering - has never sounded finer.
